Description
File# 0886 Nose art Strategic Air Command (SAC) shield and banner on a Convair B-36J 'Peacemaker' as displayed at the National Museum of the USAF in 2007.
The B-36 was America's largest bomber. On June 26, 1948 the first operational B-36 was assigned to the Strategic Air Command. In addition to its primary role as an intercontinental bomber, the B-36 served as a photo-reconnaissance aircraft. Some were converted to 'aircraft carriers' designed to launch and retrieve reconnaissance planes (FICON project). An experimental NB-36H was the world's first aircraft fly with a nuclear reactor.
